The village has one of the largest village greens in Essex. Its almost triangular shape covers 5.6 hectares (13.8 acres) and is lined along each edge by a variety of (mainly) detached cottages and houses ranging in age from the 14th to the 19th century, twenty-eight of which are listed buildings. Since there are relatively few trees, the buildings are important in defining the shape and size of the green.
The site of the former RAF Matching lies to the east of village.
